New, old, antique. Selecting a Prayer Rug. July 27, 2011. Harun from Sydney Australia picking out a prayer rug for his mother. He had one hour in the shop before he had to catch a cab to Ataturk Airport, but managed to see some great pieces and make a great final decision. He left Istanbul with a beautiful 60 year old prayer rug from Yahyahi. I’m sure his mother will love it! Where the continents, countries, cultures, languages and people get together.

Istanbul: August 2010

Sunday, August 15, 2010. I am back in America, sitting on my bed in Evanston at 2 in the morning after 3 hours of attempted sleep. . It is Monday morning. The tramvay is experiencing its first lull of the day after the morning commuter rush.
